It got a little warm today..Officially 42.9

But out around our way 43. to 44.I filled the bird baths twice and both times the magpies arrived while I still had the hose on. The clever buggers have worked out how to hide in the shade under the bench my wife used to sit on..
They tell me our state was officially the hottest place on the planet today, with some places making 47.. Many towns under threat from Bush fires. Those firefighters are in for a rough few days.. Thoughts and prayers boys & girls..
Looks like summer is here a little early this year..😷

@jackson55 Much of our continent is quite like Arizona and Nevada (minus the Grand canyon)😷

@whowasthatmaskedman Hot ?

@jackson55 In summer, yes. Death Valley hot at times.. And I have been in Vegas on a 100F day and it was not uncomfortable..😷

@whowasthatmaskedman I live up in the mountains closer to Flagstaff. It’s 25 F cooler than in the valley. ( Phoenix)
I’ve been in Death Valley on a motorcycle when it was 52C.

@jackson55 You win. I did a 50C day in Dubai once.. Once was enough.. When the real heat arrives here it is often with a hot north wind that feels like standing in front of the worlds largest hand dryer..😷

@whowasthatmaskedman Same in Phoenix. Zero humidity.
Niether me or the motorcycle was happy in the heat.
